澳洲 CoffeyHallett 玩趣、温暖与惊喜,从珠宝零售到办公空间
澳洲设计工作室 COFFEYHALLETT 的作品很少追求鲜明的形式语言,而是始终围绕空间氛围以及人与空间之间的关系展开设计。在交流中,他们告诉我们,无论是住宅、零售还是办公项目,他们始终思考同一个问题:如何让空间不仅满足使用需求,更让人愿意停留、交流,并在其中留下属于自己的专属记忆。
Australian design studio COFFEYHALLETT rarely pursues bold formal expression. Instead, its work is consistently shaped by an interest in atmosphere and the relationship between people and space. In our conversation with the studio, they told us that whether designing a home, a retail environment, or a workplace, they are always guided by the same question: how can a space do more than simply serve a function, encouraging people to linger, connect, and create lasting personal memories.
COFFEYHALLETT 是一家总部位于澳大利亚悉尼的设计工作室,由 Madeleine Coffey 与 Taylor Hallett 创立。两位创始人曾任职于 Akin Atelier 和 Hassell Studio,凭借丰富的行业经验与开放的创作方式,将温暖、趣味与意想不到的设计巧思融入空间之中。她们擅长以独特的材质、家具与艺术收藏构建富有个性的空间体验,通过与客户紧密协作,为每个项目打造兼具叙事性与专属性的设计成果
这种以玩趣、温暖与意想不到的惊喜为核心的设计理念,同样贯穿于 Love Isabelle Armadale、Love Isabelle Manly 以及 O’Connell St 三个项目之中。无论是重塑珠宝零售的体验方式,还是探索办公空间更轻松、开放的可能性,COFFEYHALLETT 始终将空间视为连接人与人的媒介。通过对材质、光线与细节的细腻营造,他们让空间从单纯的功能场所,转化为承载交流、情感与日常生活的体验载体。
This philosophy—centred on playfulness, warmth, and the delightfully unexpected—runs through all three featured projects: Love Isabelle Armadale, Love Isabelle Manly, and O’Connell St. Whether reimagining the experience of jewellery retail or exploring a more relaxed and open approach to the workplace, COFFEYHALLETT sees space not merely as a functional container, but as a medium for human connection. Through a thoughtful orchestration of materials, light, and detail, the studio transforms everyday environments into places that foster conversation, emotional resonance, and meaningful daily experiences.
印际: 能否介绍一下 COFFEYHALLETT,并分享工作室创立背后的故事?创立之初,你们希望建立一个怎样的设计实践?
YINJISPACE: Could you introduce COFFEYHALLETT and share the story behind the establishment of the studio? What kind of design practice did you hope to create when you founded the studio?
COFFEYHALLETT: COFFEYHALLETT 是一家位于悉尼的设计工作室,以玩趣、温暖与意想不到的惊喜创意为核心。我们相信,设计源于好奇与探索,美往往就藏在那些容易被忽略的物件、材料或空间细节之中。工作室的实践涵盖住宅与商业室内设计、空间造型、品牌设计及视觉叙事等多个领域。创立工作室的初衷,是打造一个跨越不同创意学科的平台,通过融合空间、物件与视觉表达,创造具有个性与情感共鸣的体验。
COFFEYHALLETT: COFFEYHALLETT is a Sydney-based design studio centred on playfulness, warmth, and the delightfully unexpected. We believe design begins with curiosity and exploration, and that beauty is often found in overlooked objects, materials, and spatial details. Our practice spans residential and commercial interiors, spatial styling, branding, and visual storytelling. From the outset, we set out to build a multidisciplinary studio that brings together space, objects, and visual expression to create experiences that are both deeply personal and emotionally engaging.
印际:Love Isabelle 的两个项目都突破了传统珠宝零售模式,更关注空间氛围、交流以及人与空间之间的连接,这种设计理念源于怎样的思考?
YINJISPACE: Both Love Isabelle projects move away from traditional jewellery retail and focus more on atmosphere, conversation and connection. What inspired this approach?
COFFEYHALLETT: 我们希望跳脱传统珠宝零售的模式,打造一个更私人、更放松且更具吸引力的体验,而不仅仅是一个销售空间。以 Love Isabelle Manly 为例,我们提出了“想象你最喜欢的酒吧,只不过这里提供的不是鸡尾酒,而是钻石”的概念,将中央吧台作为空间核心,让顾客在轻松交流中自然地发现珠宝,而非被动浏览陈列。我们希望放慢整个体验的节奏,更强调触感、互动与情感连接,让珠宝零售从一次交易转变为一次值得停留、交流与体验的过程。
Coffeyhallett: The idea was to move away from traditional jewellery retail and create an environment that feels more personal, relaxed and inviting.For Love Isabelle Manly, we imagined: “Imagine your favourite bar, but instead of cocktails, you’re served diamonds.”The concept store flips the script on traditional retail, putting a sleek, central bar at the heart of the space. Pull up a seat, sip something sparkling, and let our team serve you pieces as dazzling as the drinks. We wanted jewellery to be discovered rather than simply displayed.The experience is deliberately slow — tactile, personal and designed to be savoured. More than a place to browse, the store is designed as a destination — one that replaces transactional encounters with engagement and ease.
Love Isabelle Armadale
珠宝零售空间
Love Isabelle Armadale 以一种“居家的感性”重新定义珠宝零售空间,与其说是交易场所,不如说是一个强调停留与感知的场域。设计被构想为一间起居室,鼓励来访者放松、安顿下来,并以轻松自然的方式与空间互动。整体借鉴了私密住宅内部空间的语言,将舒适感、熟悉感与个性置于传统零售体验之上。
Love Isabelle Armadale is defined by a domestic sensibility, less a place of transaction and more a space of presence. Conceived as a living room, the design encourages visitors to lounge, settle in, and engage with the space in a relaxed, conversational way. It draws from the language of a private interior, where comfort, familiarity, and individuality take precedence over retail convention.
温暖的木质墙面构筑出统一而连贯的空间外壳,使物件、家具与织物的层次关系更加鲜明。花卉面料贯穿整个室内,柔化了建筑的秩序,并为空间注入丰盈与个性的气息。这些织物并非点缀性的存在,而是成为塑造空间气质的重要元素,包裹着座椅、灯罩以及可供停留的角落,营造出一种触感丰富、近乎怀旧的温暖氛围。
Walls of warm timber establish a consistent envelope, allowing a layered composition of objects, furniture, and textiles to sit forward. Floral fabrics are used generously throughout, softening the architecture and introducing a sense of abundance and personality. Rather than acting as accent, these textiles become a defining element, wrapping seating, lampshades, and moments of pause in a tactile, almost nostalgic richness.
Love Isabelle Manly
沉浸式购物体验
Love Isabelle Manly 是一家重新定义了传统珠宝零售体验的概念店,以出人意料的方式营造轻松而愉悦的购物氛围,邀请人们坐下来、驻足停留,在如同品味一杯精心调制饮品般的仪式感中,感受精致珠宝所带来的独特体验。
Love Isabelle Manly – a concept store reframing the traditional retail experience to one that is delightfully unexpected, inviting you to take a seat, linger, and engage, with fine jewellery presented in the same considered manner as a perfectly poured drink.
室内设计摒弃了传统以展示为主的珠宝展厅模式,转而强调温暖、私密与氛围感。中央吧台作为空间核心,鼓励交流与互动;珠宝则通过嵌入式抽屉和精心策划的展示方式被逐步揭示,而非依赖张扬的视觉陈列。整个体验刻意放慢节奏,以触觉、交流和沉浸感取代传统的消费过程。
The interior shifts away from the conventions of display-heavy showrooms, favouring warmth, intimacy, and atmosphere. A central bar anchors the plan, encouraging conversation and connection, while jewellery is revealed gradually through integrated drawers and curated displays rather than overt spectacle. The experience is deliberately slow - tactile, personal, and designed to be savoured.
O’Connell St
再定义办公空间
这间私人办公室被构想为城市中的一处静谧空间,是对克制、光线与材质温度的深入探索。它既是工作场所,也是可供停留与放松的空间,重新定义了办公环境应有的体验——私密而富有目的性,层次丰富却毫不矫饰。柔和的自然光透过薄纱窗帘缓缓洒入,在深色木材、镀铬金属与柔和中性色调之间轻盈流动。光与影成为空间中最安静的主角,不断勾勒材质肌理、强化空间形态,并随着时间推移展现细腻而丰富的变化。
This private office is imagined as a quiet world within the city, a study in restraint, light, and material warmth. Designed as both a retreat and a workspace, it challenges the notion of what an office should feel like: intimate yet purposeful, layered but unpretentious. Soft daylight drifts through sheer curtains, diffusing across a palette of dark timber, chrome and soft neutrals. The interplay of light and shadow becomes the project’s quiet protagonist, revealing texture, grounding form, and shifting subtly throughout the day.
空间的展开遵循着自然的节奏。休闲式的交流区域营造出轻松从容的对话氛围,而更专注的办公区域则包裹于深沉的色调与柔和的线条之中,形成安静而私密的工作环境。条纹玻璃隔断在通透与反射之间取得平衡,使开放性与私密性得以兼顾。
There’s a rhythm to the way spaces unfold. Lounge-like settings encourage unhurried conversation, while more focused zones are cocooned in deeper tones and softened edges. Fluted glass partitions play with transparency and reflection, balancing openness with discretion.
COFFEYHALLETT 的三个项目虽分别回应珠宝零售与办公空间,却始终围绕着同一种设计思考展开:让空间回归人的感受,而非形式本身。无论是如居所般亲切的珠宝店,还是安静克制的办公环境,空间都超越了原有的功能定义,成为人与环境建立联系的媒介。这种克制而富有温度的设计方式,也正是他们持续探索的核心——让建筑与室内不只是被观看,更真正融入生活。
Although COFFEYHALLETT’s three projects respond to different typologies—jewellery retail and workplace interiors—they are united by the same design philosophy: placing human experience before formal expression. Whether shaping a jewellery store with the intimacy of a home or a workplace defined by quiet restraint, each space transcends its functional purpose to become a medium through which people connect with their surroundings. This understated yet deeply warm approach lies at the heart of the studio’s ongoing practice—creating architecture and interiors that are not simply meant to be seen, but genuinely lived in.
